This trail is just a stone’s throw from the Zion Canyon Visitor Center, offering 360-degree views of Zion National Park and the town of Springdale. Often overlooked, The Watchman Trail is an excellent introduction to the park. It stretches three miles round-trip and takes one to two hours to complete.
